Andrew Wiggins Returns To Starting Five
Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins (illness) will return to the starting five for Monday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 27-year-old returns after missing each of the last two games due to a non-COVID related illness. He'll immediately slide back into the starting five, which means less value for Jonathan Kuminga. The organization […]

Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura will make his first start with his new team on Monday. This doesn't come as a surprise, with LeBron James and Anthony Davis both sidelined due to injury.

Hamidou Diallo Ruled Out For Monday
Detroit Pistons guard Hamidou Diallo (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The 24-year-old was a late addition to the injury report due to a non-COVID related illness. This is a shame because Diallo was playing very well over the last two weeks. He has been providing 6th-round value in […]

Kevin Love Practices On Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (back) was able to participate in Monday's practice. The veteran forward has missed the last three games due to lower back spasms. There's a chance that Love suits up for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. His return would mean that Dean Wade and Robin Lopez would see decreased roles. […]

Romeo Langford To Miss Third Straight Game
San Antonio Spurs guard Romeo Langford (groin) has been downgraded to out for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. The 23-year-old will miss his third game in a row due to left groin tightness. His absence will mean another start for Keita Bates-Diop.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (illness) is set to return for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The young forward has missed the last two games due to a minor illness.

Myles Turner Signs Extension With Pacers
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner has agreed to an extension with the organization. This is an interesting development given the trade rumors surrounding Turner. The big man gets a two-year deal worth $60 million. This doesn't mean Turner can't be traded, but the likelihood does decrease. Turner has been playing at a high level this […]

Jonathan Isaac To Remain Restricted
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (knee) has been cleared to play in Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. However, the 25-year-old will be limited to 8-10 minutes of playing time.

Jauan Jennings Is A Risky Flex Option
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings has not been heavily involved over the last few weeks. Last week, Jennings hauled both of his targets for 26 yards in the Divisional Round win over the Dallas Cowboys. The 49ers have so many weapons on offense that often times Jennings gets lost in the shuffle. That […]

Quez Watkins A Risky Choice Versus 49ers
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Quez Watkins hasn't seen much involvement over the last few weeks. In fact, Watkins has three receptions on 10 targets for 33 yards over the last four games. The 24-year-old didn't do anything against the New York Giants in last week's playoff matchup. That being said, fantasy managers shouldn't have much […]
